A recipient of a 2020-2021 Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant, a 2020 Idea Fund Grant, and a 2016 Joan Mitchell Foundation Emerging Artist Grant, Anne has been an artist-in-residence at the Galveston Artist Residency, Vermont Studio Center, Studios at Mass MoCA, Hewnoaks Artist Colony, and Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity. Her exhibition history includes the Portland Museum of Art, Portland, ME; Woodmere Art Museum, Philadelphia, PA; Boston University Gallery, Boston, MA; The Painting Center, New York, NY, and others. Her paintings have been highlighted in New American Paintings, Juxtapoz, Hyperallergic, and The New York Times, and included in the collections of the Institute of Contemporary Art Miami; Aishti Foundation, Lebanon; Zuzeum, Latvia; X Museum, Beijing; Art Museum of West Virginia, and Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.

She is represented by Rachel Uffner Gallery (New York, NY), Pentimenti Gallery (Philadelphia, PA), Micki Meng (San Francisco, CA), and Rebecca Camacho Presents (San Francisco, CA). "Anne Buckwalter’s creative practice explores female identity and the coexistence of contradictory elements. Inspired by the folk art traditions of her Pennsylvania Dutch heritage, her work arranges disparate objects in mysterious domestic interiors and ambiguous spaces. By imagining obscure narratives that embrace paradoxes, her paintings delve into questions about the body, femininity, sexuality, and desire."
